Intro to OOP & Learning Intentions

Which statement best describes a key goal of Object-Oriented Programming for beginners?

• Speed up hardware using faster processors

• Reduce tangled code by reusing class templates

• Encrypt data automatically without effort

• Replace all variables with global constants

Match each term with its description.

• Tangled code from duplicated structures

• Spaghetti code

• Breaking programs into independent parts

• Modular programming

• Template defining objects with shared features

• Class (in OOP)

You are coding a game with 100 characters and you currently copy‑paste separate variables for each one. Explain how using a class could change your approach and why it reduces errors.

In object-oriented programming, what does a class primarily define?

• Only how memory is allocated

• Only the names of specific objects

• A single stored value for one car

• What something is and what it can do

Which pair correctly lists attributes for a Car class shown in the diagram?

• colour and fuel_level

• drive() and refuel()

• brand and owner_name

• speed() and brake()

Match each term to its description.

• Action a class or object can perform

• Method

• Blueprint describing structure and behavior

• Object

• Named data stored in an instance

• Attribute

• Specific instance created from a class

• Class

Two objects, Blue Holden and Red Toyota, come from the same Car class. What stays the same and what can differ between them?

Which statement best explains the relationship between a class and an object shown in the images?

• A class is memory; an object is the blueprint

• A class is unique; objects cannot share a class

• A class is data; an object is only behavior

• A class is a blueprint; an object is a created instance

You design a Car class with attributes colour and fuel_level and methods drive() and refuel(). Which scenario best demonstrates creating two instances?

• Declaring a class Car but never using it

• Writing only drive() and refuel() method names

• Listing colour and fuel_level without values

• Making my_hatchback Blue and work_ute Red

Match each OOP term to its correct description.

• An action that an object can perform.

• Encapsulation

• Keeping data and functions bundled together.

• Class

• The 'blueprint' or template for creating something.

• Method

• A specific instance created from a blueprint.

• Object
